“Leslie Snow is a brilliant instructor. She radiates calm and reassurance. Her focus is on practical and useful applications of yoga practices. I always look forward to her sessions. The gentle stretches sped up my recovery from a fall but also substantially improved my mood.”

Level I Yoga for Seniors

Thursdays

More like a traditional yoga class, this one-hour practice requires the ability to get up and down off the mat. Using Sanskrit and English, the class begins with breath control then warms up with postures from a table-top position, then to standing, strength-building, and balance-improving postures. Returning to the mat for core postures, the class ends with guided meditation.

My feet always ached at the end of the day, especially if I had been doing a lot of walking or standing. After a few months of taking a yoga class with Leslie, I noticed that my feet had stopped aching. Specific feet exercises and natural strengthening from balance poses transformed my feet.
